  Well it was really surprising place! We were looking for a place for dinner which could hold 6 people without a reservation. We tried this place and we were really well welcome. They found us a table big enough for our group. Even if I know Korean food, the waitress took the time to make us recommendation of different dishes to share.
  The owner offered us Kimchi (which was delicious by the way) and was really warm.
  We ordered different things like gyozas (I agree it's more Japanese than Korean but was really good ), bulgogi, kimchi pancake, Tuk Bok KI (which were perfect and really spicy !) and two types of beef noodles. Everything for me was good and we were all REALLY FULL with good food ! I wasn't disappointed at all and will come back for sure

  Very small place, mainly for groups of two or four, but I am sure if you call ahead of time they may be able to accommodate you. We came in here after exploring Chinatown very excited to try this place out. Unfortunately we found the service to be very unfriendly and the food disappointing and expensive. We sat at the exact same time as another group and they not only ordered, but finished their food before we even ordered! The portions are small and plain, which was not the problem, but definitely not worth the price. We both ordered bibimbap. It was weird because only one came out, the second one took a while. I am used to bibimbap being served piping hot and sizzling where after a few minutes the rice gets crunchy, this wasn't the case and we were pretty disappointed. We definitely won't be coming back.

  Really let down by Yelp on this one. Maybe I'm just too spoiled by visiting LA/NYC enough to regularly eat at their respective Koreatowns, but LiKo is just not good Korean food.
  
  The kalbi tang was the only passable thing we had here, and I'm probably being really generous. The bibimbap was awful; the rice hadn't been cooked enough and the stone bowl wasn't nearly hot enough, so the rice was not crispy at all - and the vegetables were not great either. And I'm not even sure they used traditional / authentic noodles for the japchae. Worst off, kimchee costs extra!
  
  Our server was friendly when present - but was often not present. Really unacceptable, considering they add a 10% service charge to the bill.

  We got yook kye jang with ALMOST NO noodles or fern and fat with some meat attached to it. The bibimbap was very small with NO meat at all. They charge for the kimchi and kimchi radish. They claim its expensive but probably bc they are one of the few korean places and they know they can. It was around 2pounds or so for a small amount of kimchi.
  
  Not really worth the price.

  The food is mostly good although I thought we also had a dish that missed. I still like the place, but just can't see myself giving it a 4 star.
